A Pike Logan Novel

A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

NARRATED BY RICH ORLOW

New York Times bestselling author and former special forces officer Brad Taylor is back with a dynamic political thriller featuring Pike Logan as he goes head-to-head with an old enemy—and renowned assassin.

After its proxies are devastated and its offensive capability pummeled in the latest war in the middle east, a rogue group of Iranian regime officials create a brazen plot to strike back at their hated enemies once and for all. They envision a series of operational dominos culminating in a devastating attack, and the first step is the assassination of the Israeli prime minister. And there’s only one assassin with the skills to pull it off: Abdul Rahman, known in the shadows as the Ghost.

When a routine prison transfer is ambushed, the Ghost escapes and is given the assignment. The only Operator who can hunt him down is the man who stopped him before: Pike Logan.

Pike and his team soon learn that the mission involves something bigger than just the escape of his old enemy. Working with Mossad agents, the pursuit leads the Taskforce to Argentina. They work to unravel the scope of the attack, and the chase leads them through the tempestuous waterfalls of Iguazu and the Triple Frontier, to the vibrant streets of Buenos Aires, and the tiny village of Ushuaia at the “End of the World”.

As the team races against the clock, Pike learns the stakes are much greater than a single life – the consequences extend into the heartland of America itself. The Ghost may hold the key to an escalation that will upend the worldwide balance of power, and if Pike fails, the fallout won’t just be personal – it’ll be global.

Best one yet

Taylor kills it again. Great story! One of the few series that just keeps getting better.

Great story.

Kept my attention throughout the entire book. I’m pretty sure this is my favorite Pike Logan novel.

Brad Taylor continues to be brilliant

I listen to this series with a Map open. I love to see where Pike and company travel. Not only does Taylor describes the surroundings but he inserts a little bit of history. An excellent background for an exciting storyline. World events (especially in the Middle East) keep feeding Brad Tylor ideas for stories. That is scary. The most frightening was gangsters doing terrorist dirty deeds. What in the heck!?!? Love it when Brad brings in my favorite Israelis, Shoshana and Aaron. As always Rich Orlow does a beautiful job narrating.

A bit boring compared to other pike Logan books

The story could’ve been a good one, but I think it was too complicated and did not have as much high action as most Pike Logan stories have it also didn’t have much internal conflict in terms of people wrestling with what was the right thing to do I would put this in the bottom 20% of his books and I have read them all.

Maybe the best yet!

I loved this book! I don’t have a favorite overall because most of them are awesome but this definitely ranks way up there. I liked that this was a little easier to follow than a few of the last ones and I always love the Israels. Bringing back the Ghost was brilliant and really well done as it could’ve been messed up easily. This is the first review I’ve ever left because it was just that great. As always, Rich Orlow is the best possible narrator! As a rule, I prefer real books, but in this series, I actually let Rich read them to me first. Because we only get one a year, (c’mon Brad! You’re slacking! 😂) I usually read/listen to the whole series all over again before the new one coming out, gives me an excuse and I love them. So with them fresh in my head, I’ll tell anyone that wants to listen to start at the beginning and enjoy the ride! Thank you as usual Brad!
